Intrinsic safety (IS)

Design-based explosion protection reduces the risk of explosion

A hazardous location is where concentrations of flammable gases, vapors or dusts are present. Electrical equipment installed in such locations must be specially designed and tested to ensure they do not increase the risk of an explosion. Our instruments are covered by international certifications (IECEx, ATEX, CSA, FM, NEPSI) with various protection types such as intrinsic safety, explosion protection (flameproof) and non-incendive design approaches to meet various risk requirements
